The Own Your Yes Podcast is for you, the Christian woman whose life is a fast-paced treadmill. Daily, you constantly react to crises, solve problems, and strive to make life better for others. Helping, loving, encouraging, filling in the gap, shielding, diffusing, serving, caring, and going the extra mile is who you are. Compassion, empathy, striving, creating, anticipating, and worrying are woven into your DNA. That is how God wired you. You have a big heart. You love big and care much. And you are fighting feelings of depletion, overwhelm, stress, anxiety, and fatigue. I know because I have been there! That was until God pulled the emergency cord on the treadmill my life had become. I am Dr. Phyllis - a life coach, wife, mother, caregiver, minister, author, and physician. I was once caught in the whirlwind of life, feeling as if life was living me instead of me living my life. The Resilient Woman Podcast is a community for resetting, growing, and aligning with God’s purpose. My mission is to help you create authenticity, replenish your resilience, and transform from feeling overwhelmed to living with intention, joy, and purpose.

#70- What will Fuel Your Resilience in the New Year

Season 1 · Episode 70

Thursday, January 16, 2025 • Duration 33:37

Resilience is often misunderstood. Many think it’s about constantly pushing through, checking off tasks, and never slowing down. But this kind of resilience can quickly become a cycle—one that leads to burnout.

So, what truly fuels resilience? It’s a question worth asking, because the answer can open up a new perspective and vision for life.

Resilience doesn’t have to come from enduring everything without pause. True resilience is fueled by something deeper. It comes from joy, from living authentically, and from being present in the moment. It’s about embracing life fully—without the weight of regrets or the rush of constantly doing more.

For many, resilience may be rooted in fear—fear of not being enough, fear of failure, or the need for external validation. But resilience based on fear or perfectionism only leads to exhaustion. It’s a kind of resilience that burns people out, not one that lifts them up.

True resilience is about connecting to what matters most, finding peace in the present, and living with purpose. It’s about choosing joy over pressure, and authenticity over perfectionism.

When resilience is rooted in joy, it doesn’t drain—it sustains. It becomes a force that lifts up and encourages, rather than something that must constantly be pushed through.

Sis, what will fuel your resilience today? You don’t have to live life on autopilot. It’s possible to choose joy, to live with intention, and to let resilience be powered by what truly matters.

Quotes from Today’s Episode:

"The problem with seeking external validation, it will never be enough."

"We have happy moments. But sustainable joy comes from living authentically and living in the moment and creating joy for yourself”

#69- Moving Forward with Hope and Purpose in 2025

Season 1 · Episode 69

Thursday, January 9, 2025 • Duration 30:12

Moving into 2025 is an opportunity to step forward with hope and purpose. While 2024 may have brought its share of breakthroughs and setbacks, it’s important to see it as a chapter in a much larger story. The lessons of last year are tools for growth, not limits on your future.

What did 2024 teach you about yourself? Maybe it revealed strengths you didn’t know you had or opened your eyes to areas where growth is still needed. It’s easy to dwell on disappointments, but those moments don’t define you. Instead, they can be stepping stones toward something greater.

Sis, we all face moments when fear and self-doubt threaten to hold us back. It’s easier to focus on helping others fulfill their dreams while putting our own on hold. But stepping into your purpose requires courage, trust, and the belief that you were created for something meaningful.

You’re not walking this path alone, and you’re not the only one who feels the weight of uncertainty. Let this new year be a time to embrace the truth that God’s plans for you are good and that he’s not finished with your story.

As you move forward, don’t put a period where God places a comma. Take time to reflect on what you hope to see in 2025. Write it down, pray about it, and allow yourself to dream. It’s never too late to begin again, to take that next step, and to trust that this is the season to step into all that you were made for.

Quotes from Today’s Episode:

“If 2024 taught us anything, it's that life is precious and fleeting. God calls us to live in the moment, not in fear of the future or regret of the past."

"Living in the moment doesn't mean that you're ignoring your responsibilities. It means fully embracing life and the life that God has given you."

(00:00) Embrace hope, courage, and purposeful growth today.

(05:21) Realign priorities, deepen faith, learn reliance.

(07:11) Disappointed by divisiveness during U.S. presidential election.

(13:06) Use phone apps or journal to jot insights.

#60- Letting Go of Shame and Embracing Your Growth Journey

Season 1 · Episode 60

Thursday, November 7, 2024 • Duration 20:11

As resilient women, we often carry the weight of shame—shame over past experiences, unmet dreams, or goals left unachieved. We’re strong, we’re determined, but sometimes we feel burdened by lingering feelings of “not enough.” We’ve gone the extra mile for others, faced storms head-on, and shown up time and again. Yet, there are moments when we feel stuck, as if we’re spinning in place rather than growing forward.

What if we could see shame differently? What if, instead of letting it keep us trapped, we took a closer look at its source and gently put it in a corner?

Many of us wear different masks. We have our public persona—the resilient, capable woman who keeps going no matter what. She’s strong, she’s unwavering, and she gets things done. But behind that mask is often a private self who feels the weight of everything she’s taken on, who may feel lost or uncertain, despite her outer strength.

Being resilient isn’t about perfection. It’s about courage—the courage to keep going, to rise above, and to learn from the things that tried to hold us down. You’ve weathered storms and navigated difficult seasons, and here you are, standing strong.

Now is the time to let go of any shame holding you back. Embrace where you’ve been and where you’re going. Remember that your resilience has carried you through so much already.

Quotes from Today’s Episode:

"I know how it feels when life is living you instead of you living your life."

"Feeling stuck can mean that you just don't feel like you're growing."

"So if you look at where you've come from, from birth, the experiences that you've had, there's a reason why you see yourself as a resilient person. It's because life has not always been easy."

(00:00) Lady Gaga on embracing life despite shame.

(03:24) Public extrovert, private introvert, avoiding emotions.

(07:55) Unfulfilled dreams can lead to feeling stuck.

(12:36) Resilience grows through challenges and overcoming negativity.

#59-Celebrating Resilience as Your Superpower

Season 1 · Episode 59

Thursday, October 31, 2024 • Duration 27:23

Every day, it feels like something new comes at you. Some mornings, you just want to pull the covers over your head and hide from it all, but you still get up. You keep going because there's something within you – a spark of resilience that God placed there, a superpower that propels you forward.

Today, let’s celebrate that. You were created to be resilient, a woman with a big heart and a deep capacity for caring. God shaped you with purpose, and there’s nothing wrong with the way you serve and give to others. But sometimes, you forget to use that energy on yourself. This isn’t a call to stop caring for others, but a reminder to care for you just as fiercely.

Resilient woman, you don’t thrive when you feel stagnant or stuck. It’s time to fuel that resilience with joy. Lean into God’s plans for you, plans that include moving forward, learning, and becoming. He didn’t create you to be depleted or just serve others without also nurturing yourself.

So, take a moment. Think about what brings you joy. What parts of your own dreams and personal goals have you set aside? It’s time to bring those back, to embrace your superpower with love and purpose. Yes, not everyone will understand. Not everyone will see the strength behind your resilience or the depth of your heart, and that’s okay.

So, celebrate yourself. Revisit those dreams you’ve put on the shelf, and remember, this is a journey. Your resilience is a gift. Embrace it, fuel it, and use it to become all that God created you to be.

Quotes from Today’s Episode:

"I see you. I see everything that you do for everyone else. But now it's time to focus on you."

"Your resilience is, yes, it is your superpower. And don't let anyone make you feel bad about it."

"The opportunity is for you to become a better steward of your superpower so that you can make that shift to infusing some joy by adding in your own personal development”

(00:00) Keep going, despite overwhelming expectations and challenges.

#58- Permission to Choose Heart People Over Hurt People

Season 1 · Episode 58

Thursday, October 24, 2024 • Duration 18:29

As we journey through different stages—whether it’s personal growth, healing, or simply choosing to do things differently—not everyone around us will understand or support the changes we make. Some people may not be able to come with us into this new season, and that’s okay. But it raises an important question: Who is walking beside you, and who is holding you back?

You have the permission to choose wisely. When you reflect on your closest circle, think about who you trust with your dreams and challenges. Not everyone will be supportive. Sometimes, hurt people—those who haven’t healed or are stuck in their own lives—can unintentionally hold you back.

But what happens when you choose heart people? Heart people are those who listen, encourage, and lift you up. They are the ones who are truly invested in your growth, walking beside you through the ups and downs, and cheering you on every step of the way. These are the people who create a sense of community and support as you navigate your new season.

So today, I challenge you to take a closer look at your circle. Who are your heart people? And who might be holding you back? Give yourself the freedom to let go of those who aren’t supporting your journey and embrace those who are. Surround yourself with heart people, and watch how your path begins to open up.

Quotes from Today’s Episode:

“Who are you surrounding yourself with? Are they people who infuse joy, support your goals, and uplift your spirit? Or are they stuck in their own stagnation?”

"They are heart people who will support you. They will pour into you. They don't think your dreams are silly or you're silly."

"When you infuse joy, when you reconnect with joy, when you create joy in your life, it allows you to do the things, care for those, serve those who God has created you, has wired you to be a gift to."

(00:00) Choose wisely who you surround yourself with.

(03:40) Infuse joy, choose your companions wisely.

(08:44) Love, pray, distance from hindering friendships.

#57- Setting Boundaries: Avoiding Damage Control Before its Too Late

Season 1 · Episode 57

Thursday, October 17, 2024 • Duration 28:17

Have you ever felt overwhelmed, stretched in every direction by responsibilities at home and work? It’s easy to feel like life is living you instead of you living your life. Your brain is on overload, and saying no feels like an impossible task.

You might be wired to be a go-getter, eager to meet others’ needs, but constantly saying yes can lead to burnout. It’s crucial to recognize that you’re not meant to be everything to everyone.

Setting boundaries is key. Start by evaluating your priorities and reminding yourself that “every fire is not your fire.” Enjoy this season of your life, but make space for joy by establishing limits. When your cup is overflowing, take a moment to assess what’s causing it.

If you don’t set boundaries, that overflow can turn into resentment, making you feel upset when others ask for more of your time and energy. You might find yourself at a breaking point, saying or doing things you regret.

Remember, you owe it to yourself and those around you to create space for joy. Setting boundaries allows you to recharge and be more present. Prioritize yourself and recognize that joy comes from having some control over your commitments.

Quotes from Today’s Episode:

“You have to set boundaries which means you have to be able to start looking at your priorities.”
“You owe it to yourself and those around you to set boundaries so you don’t get to a place where you don’t start resenting everything and everyone around you”
“You’re not meant to do it all, you’re not God”

#56- Unlock Presence and Mindfulness: Be Still Psalm 46:10

Thursday, October 10, 2024 • Duration 25:32

It feels like we’re constantly reacting—emails, notifications, the never-ending to-do list. It’s easy to get caught up in the rush, but living in this reactive state drains you. Psalm 46:10 reminds us to "Be still, and know that I am God." This isn’t just about slowing down; it’s about intentionally creating space to be present with God. When you pause, even briefly, you allow yourself to reset. You stop living on autopilot and start living with awareness and intention.

These moments of stillness don’t have to be grand. They can happen before you get out of bed, during a quiet drive, or while taking a walk. The key is to make room in your day for presence. When you do, you invite peace and clarity into your life. Instead of carrying the weight of stress, you give God the space to meet you, replenish you, and help you live above the chaos.

So this week, pick one moment to pause, breathe, and be still—you’ll be surprised how much it changes your perspective.

(00:00) Reacting impulsively leads to regret and mindfulness.
(03:18) Be still, present, appreciate life and journey.
(06:49) Taking breaks improves productivity despite interruptions.
(13:36) Avoid martyrdom; prioritize self-care and purpose.
(17:36) We often don't appreciate sacrifices until adulthood.
(20:48) Live intentionally with purpose, presence, and mindfulness.
(24:39) Look up. Problems are small. God’s bigger.

Quotes from Today’s Episode:
“We’re wired to serve and go the extra mile and if we aren’t careful then we start feeling like the martyr “
“Create a space for you and God to meet.”

#55- Is it Imposter Syndrome or Too Much on Your Plate?

Season 1 · Episode 55

Thursday, October 3, 2024 • Duration 29:45

Do you ever feel like you’re constantly falling short or questioning your abilities? It might seem like imposter syndrome, but maybe the issue is that you simply have too much on your plate. We often confuse being overwhelmed with self-doubt when, in reality, it’s the never-ending to-do list and unrealistic expectations that are dragging us down. It’s not that you’re not capable – it’s that you’re trying to do everything at once.

As Christians, it’s important to remember that God never called us to do it all. He calls us to trust in his guidance and focus on what matters most. When we re-prioritize and let go of the pressure to manage everything ourselves, we can find peace knowing that we’re enough just as we are, without striving for perfection.

(00:00) Resilient Woman podcast: support for overwhelmed Christian women.
(05:54) Replenishing energy often gets neglected; avoid overcommitment.
(09:39) Neglecting self-care leads to burnout and resentment.
(10:47) Stop overcommitting; prioritize personal growth and rest.
(15:03) You must replenish yourself to avoid burnout.
(19:15) Their issue, not ours. Believe in yourself.
(24:06) Pat yourself on back, reduce your load.
(28:08) Delegate tasks to make room for joy.
(29:09) Share this with another resilient woman.

Quotes from Today’s Episode:

“You’re doing all the things but there is no gas in the tank”
“When you continually have a lot on your plate, it’s going to make you feel that you’re not enough”
"We feel wired and created to do it all. Over the years, it’s appeared we can do it all”
